Diversity is not a strength, it's a weakness. And why are the Laurentian Elites fixated on DEI?

Respect for democracy means recognizing that people are 100% equal to you regardless of where they came from.

They're not. Why would I 'recognize' some illiterate goat herder who can barely speak English is my equal? Why would I 'recognize' that the people who were running in the streets of Pakistan screeching for the death of blasphemers last year are now my equal because they came here through our open borders immigration/refugee system? Why would I 'recognize' a guy who earnestly and sternly tells me GOD has commanded women to cover themselves in cloth as my equal?

They adapt? They adapt to the wonderful generosity of our social welfare systems. That doesn't mean they assimilate or integrate or even accept any of the precepts of our culture and values. Nor does it mean they instantly acquire an education or an understanding or even acceptance of Western culture.

Really? Not one of them? The internet is full of imams and mullahs in London, in Dearborn, in Paris screeching about how all food must be Halal, and Sharia must be imposed, and how Islam must conquer the West and destroy its immoral religions and values. I can repost some if you'd like.

Daaah dey dress funny, they go to a different church, eat weird food. So f*cking what? They buy the things you make or sell, they pay the rent in the apartment you own, they work for or beside you.

Do they? Have you seen any statistics on how many 'newcomers' are availing themselves of social welfare programs I am required to pay for? There is one and only one group of newcomers who earn as much or more than Canadians, and that is the principal applicant in the economic category (about 14% of immigrants). All other categories are economic losses and require Canadians to support them and the services they use. What percentage are on welfare or in public housing? The government won't tell us. But if Sweden or the UK are any indication, a very, very large percentage. How many of them are out raping girls and women? The government won't tell us that. But if Sweden and the UK and Italy and other countries that do keep such statistics are any indication, it's an alarming number. Ever seen the most wanted lists for murderers and noticed a pattern of brown faces? No, probably not.

They don't make you do anything. If they have kids, they quickly end up with a Christmas tree and eating turkey just like you. Watch the same TV shows and sports.

The ignorance of people like you will be Canada's downfall. Your mind is still back in 1950 where all the immigrants are white Christians from Europe and fairly easily adapt to our customs and values. You simply aren't capable of contemplating that Canada is rapidly filling up with people who have no intention of integrating because they despise our traditions, values, and beliefs.

Of course, that's also because our government, media, and academia are in the control of people like you, who ALSO despise our traditions, values, and beliefs.

This is the most recent data. I'm quite sure it's much worse now, given the 'quality' of the immigrants and refugees we've been getting over the last five years.

[I am Groot]

And what glorious things has immigration for Canada's wealth and economy?

Because that's how you were supposed to have been raised. Assuming you're not 120 years old, you were raised after the people who thought they were better than others were beaten thoroughly.

I'm a realist. More importantly, I've met and worked with and lived among some of these people. I am regularly appalled at their ignorance, and often by their superstitious religious nonsense and openly expressed contempt for others (which I'm quite sure includes me and mine when they talk with their own kind).

You routinely call white people racist for things that you would hear from almost all newcomers and just smile at.

Like that appeals court in BC deciding an indigenous person had a lower level of moral culpability for violently attacking a person for no reason than, you know, a civilized person. 

If you were really opposed to racism, you'd want to stop such people from coming to Canada.

I pointed out earlier that Canada keeps few records about immigrant performance. Those they do keep usually end at the time the immigrant becomes a Canadian citizen and don't track them further. In other countries, they not only keep stats but make them easily available. This one is from the UK.

 

 

[I am Groot]

And from America, race crime stats. Something else our government won't keep, much less tell us about.

For posting an example of how DEI is unfairly implemented in support of my contention about its unfairness?

What good are your morals if they lead to destruction? Permissiveness is not a virtue, it's submissive to manipulation.

Paying a lot of money to make yourself dumber is an interesting investment.  We have real actual problems to solve out there and this is what they fill the heads of kids with.

I wouldn't care except these people have been filtering into every profession over the last 10 years and ramming identity politics into everything while discriminating against anyone in the group they feel less sorry for, and it's going to continue indefinitely.   And you disagree with them you're a racist sexist homophobe.  We're cooked.
